1MAP calculated as the average squared difference between the observed and predicted values.

2Analyzed using Bayesian logistic regression. Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI + triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + SBP + DBP + blood glucose.

3Analyzed using the REGARDS dataset by Bayesian logistic regression.

4Diabetes incidence ~ (age + BMI + triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + SBP + DBP + blood glucose) × (sex:race).

5Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI + triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + SBP:DBP + blood glucose.

6MAP calculated as [(2 ×DBP) + SBP]/3. Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI + triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + MAP + blood glucose.

7Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI + triglycerides:HDL cholesterol + SBP + DBP + blood glucose.

8Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI:waist circumference + triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + SBP + DBP + blood glucose.

9Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI:HDL cholesterol + triglycerides + SBP + DBP + blood glucose.

10Diabetes incidence ~ age + sex + race + BMI:triglycerides + HDL cholesterol + SBP + DBP + blood glucose.

ARIC, Atherosclerotic Risk in Communities; AUC, area under the curve; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; HDL, high-density lipoprotein; MAP, mean arterial pressure; MSE, mean squared error; REGARDS, REasons for Geographic And Racial Differences in Stroke; SBP, systolic blood pressure.
